ABOUT FIRST
ARMISTICE DAY
What the first armistice day was
like was described Thursday by Col.
E. D. Scott. Inspector general depart
ment. Sth army corps. Fsrt Sam Hous
ton.
A long tense silence followed firing
over the entire front. Men walked
around in a dase. After nightfall a
light appeared here aad there an un-
heard of thing. Then tt occurred to
the man of the American armies at
the front that what had been looked
for bad happened peace.
The first Sunday after peace was
declared church bells rang out Ange-
las like for the first time in long
weeks CoL 8cott said. Before they
had been silent so tbe enemy could
not detect the loeaton of churches'
which often sheltered troops. Then
the peasants harvested their belated
crops. Joy had returned' to the world
to star at least a while.
CoL Scott commanded a field artil-
Ury brigade In the first division. He
has been recently transferred from
the Inspector general's department to
the command of the S2nd Held artil-
lery at Fort Bliss. He will relieve
Mai. Albert & Fuger. acting com-
mander. CoL H. L. Mawhold.' former
colonel of the ttnd field artillery has
been ordered before the retirement
board CoL Scott will take his new
command sometime this month. It was
said at Fort Bliss Thursday. He will
return to San Antonio until ordered
to take command.
United States ahrpptmc board and the
emergency fleet corporation.
"The first statement was heralded
as indicating a billion dollar graft
among the ship builAere and emerg-
ency fleet corporation officials of the
Pacific coast.
The indictments when brought
showed less than $30.90. involved and
the government's case was so flimsy
that the lodge decided It without let-
ting It go to the jury.
"Tbe committee again is after a
sensation and so it publishes the
charges which two former minor em-
ployes of the shipping board have laid
before it. It publishes these without
giving the officials of the shipping
board and the fleet corporation an
opportunity to reply.
-Why has It published these
charges before it has investigated
their validity? What malevolent vin-
dictive purpose is there behind this
procedure?"
Taking up the charges made before
the committee. Pies said that in she
181 ship yards under lis con trot there
were 385000 men. and there were
among this number "less than the
average human dishonesty." There
were cases of pay -ou padding and
petty graft he said but offenders
were summarily dealt with.
"As to other charges." he continued.
"I want to say that during my In-
cumbency of It months there was not
a single case in which any contract
waa let as a result of either political
or other influence and I challenge the
committee to bring forth a single example.
